New Issue: Barclays prices $1.02 million phoenix autocalls on biotech, financial ETFs

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 8 – Barclays Bank plc priced $1.02 million of phoenix autocallable notes due Feb. 5, 2021 linked to the least performing of the Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund, the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 8.35% if each ETF closes at or above its 65% coupon barrier on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if each ETF closes at or above its initial level on any observation date other than the first and final dates.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either ETF finishes below its 65% trigger level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worst performing index.

Barclays is the agent.
